Right-to-die campaigner’s daughter: ‘Law does not need to be changed’

The daughter of an 86-year-old woman who starved herself to death said she did not believe the law should be changed to support assisted suicide. Bronwen Davies admitted that she was “very shocked and very upset” about Jean Davies’s decision to end her life. But despite the agony of watching her deteriorate over the course of five weeks, she said her mother had proved that those who wanted to die did have the power to take their own lives.
